Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

A Democrat or a Republican is going to win either way. Only an insane person or an idiot would vote for someone with no chance of winning rather than for the candidate who will do the least harm.
So you’re saying all these Muslim voters are either insane or idiots for making their own choice? That doesn’t sound very respectful.
If they vote third party then yes, I do think they're idiots or insane people. But I also have faith they'll make the right decision when election day finally comes.
Wow, alright then. Gee, I can’t imagine why anyone on the fence wouldn’t be racing to join the Democrats. I mean, with such welcoming, open-minded attitudes like yours, who wouldn’t want to? Lmao.
I'm not a Democrat, I'm just planning to vote for one. Because I'm not a fucking idiot.
So everyone who isn't voting for Harris is "a fucking idiot"? Wow. Ok, then. lmao
Yes. Unless you're ignorant.
Assuming you've paid any attention at all to the last 8 years of American politics, then yeah, not voting for Harris is fucking idiotic.
So you think half of the United States is idiotic. Wow. Ok, then.
Thinking Trump voters are idiots isn't exactly a hot take.
Isn't exactly rising above and being the better side either.
I'm not a Trump voter, so I don't care. But calling half of the country idiots doesn't exactly warm people up to your cause.
Sitting on our hands and trying to "rise above" is what got us Trump in the first place. Remember "they go low, we go high?"
Anyway, Trump voters have already made up their minds and that's completely obvious to anyone paying on ounce of attention to American politics. So either you're being willfully ignorant or intentionally obtuse in an attempt to wear people down — which seems much more likely given the fact that all of your posts are filled with threads of you relentlessly arguing with people.
Either way, you're clearly not here to argue in good faith, so I'm done responding.
Good. Because you are clearly not here to argue in good faith.
Anyone genuinely dedicated to a socialist or environmental cause would pretty clearly see the danger posed by a Trump presidency.
